The East Village is still fighting the good fight against notorious landowner Ben Shaoul, with the latest battle happening last night at Land Use Committee meeting of Community Board 3. The board voted to deny Shaoul's application for a zoning variance that would make legal the illegal tumor he attached to the top of 515 East 5th Street back in 2006. The case now head to the Board of Standards and Appeals, which previously ruled that Shaoul remove the extra floors. [EVG; previously]
